EPA Will Use Drones to Survey -- and Keep a Safe Distance From -- a Toxic Superfund Site

The government agency is going to release video of the giant asbestos tomb in Pennsylvania.

The Environmental Protection Agency will take to the skies over Ambler, Pennsylvania, to monitor where 195,000 cubic yards of asbestos — enough to fill more than 74 million two-liter Coke bottles — lies buried in the ground.

Making sure asbestos remains out of touch of water or air has been the modus operandi since the asbestos was buried. For 60 years, before becoming a Superfund site in the Eighties, Ambler was the asbestos manufacturing capital of the world.
